I think suggestion 1) make sense in some use case, like make per-cgroup
PSI disabled by default using a mount option, then enable using the
"cgroup.pressure" interface.

But suggestion 2) auto enable upon trigger creation, if we hide the
{cpu,memory,io}.pressure files when disabled, how can we create trigger?

Want to see what do Johannes and Tejun think about these suggestions?

Thanks.
